To obtain a diploma and be at least 3rd place, out of 60 students. I knew it was going to be difficult because a teacher hated me and always gave me difficult things, but I didn't care, I still did my best. I cried at night because of the bad times he put me through. Because I missed my father, I missed the United States. but in the end I still graduated and got 3rd place. I was so happy for me because of everything I went through and my problems, I earned everything I wanted by working hard. It was sad because my dad didn't attend any of my graduations that I had and he won't attend the next one either. Neither of my parents will be here. I finished high school in Mexico, then entered the preparatoria (high school) and made new friends. I started to become more social and more confident. I finished my semester and then decided in December to go visit my grandmother and father. When I got there the first thing I found out was that I had 2 other brothers and a lot of personal stuff about my dad and his issues with my dad.
